Working with data in a team can be tough. You need to share and communicate insights and make sure each team member has easy access to the information they need. Power BI Dashboards make these tasks simple and visually appealing but building them from scratch can be a little intimidating. Our Power BI Dashboard course is designed to help teams build and collaborate their own dashboards using their actual data. By the time you leave the course, you’ll have ready-to-use dashboards and a team that knows how to use them. This course is custom designed for each team, so group bookings are essential.
The course:
Leading Training is focusing on providing virtual training courses for the foreseeable future and will only consider in-person and classroom training on request, with a required minimum group size of four delegates. We remain committed to offering training that is fast, focused and effective.
